I'm confused as to how this little bug got in there but it is and it looks like it is enjoying making me a little peeved off with it.
I've got a nice Benq TFT monitor. The heat given off it is minimal. The light is good so maybe that is what attracted it to it. This little bug is crawling around underneath the screen. Walking over the cursor. Worst of all it is making all these loverly boobie avatars have a blemis on them!!!! mad
Does anybody know how to coax it out. I don't want to just crush it as it will remain in sight and I could put a nice mark on the screen cover.
It was fun hitting it with the mouse but allas it did nothing useful.
I'm going to try anything that might work.
Thanks in advance.
I don't really know what type of screen you're talking about, but you mentioned the screen cover..... is that removable? If not I have no idea how you can do it.
HTH lol
Not a cover per say. You know its like glass but because its a TFT they are a bit more delicate than that. Can't go just poking fingers at it, if you know what I mean.
This is the screen:

Now put a nice pair of boobies on it with something crawling all over them and you'll see the predicament.
You should be able to unscrew the front cover and then get at the wee beasty
Cheers G and H.
Just watching it run across Angelchats pair right now.

bugger ....... what am I sayin ???? lol
Try turning off the screen, and then placing another light source nearby... hopefully the bug will come out on its own
Sheesh... ya must be related to blonde
:huh: :huh: :huh: :huh:
try a company called cream computers for a new monitor. based in surrey normaly very good and cheap

Just come to think of it again. If the we beasty got in there must be some space, just spray some insect reppelent and the beasty will die and drop down. Make sure you disconnect the monitor from the power beforehand.
Its a simple problem to fix . First contact a company in Argentina called El Paramos they will sell you a small star shaped screwdriver with a packet of sticky stuff called gumptionator . Apply the gumptionator to the end of the stardriver and carefully insert that into one end of a drinking straw ( the straight kind not the one with a concertina bend) . Leave the gumptionator to dry over night until the driver is firmly set into the end of the straw . Now cut a small slit in the opposite end of the straw and then cut the whole end to a point . Take two fine rubber bands and wrap them around the end of the straw one approx 10mm from the pointed end , and the next a further 5 mm up the straw towards the driver end .
Turn the screen around so it is facing away from you and grasp the driver firmly in one hand and then clap very loudly with the other hand .............whilst standing on one leg and making a loud chirruping sound . Boil an egg , eat a bag of doritos , change any soiled clothing and phone your electricity company and ask if you are on the very best tariff . Then wearing a wooly hat approach the screen gingerly ( or darkly if you have different coloured hair) and glance quickly around at it without turning it to face you , and you'll find hey presto! the bug will be gone .
Works every time .

I got the company El Paramos to send me the specialised star shaped screw driver but when they asked me what it was for I told them your instruction. They have there own ready made star shaped screw driver with drinking straw (a proper one) attached by gumptionator and rubber bands already. I thought I was in luck so I ordered one straight away. To my suprise they have a warehouse down the road to where I live which actually supplies these ready made so I waited a whole 30minutes for it to arrive from them clearing my credit card purchase.
I followed your instructions, even adapted them to include several stumpy bottles of beer, one buccket of cold water and a small twig like object sticking into my ear.
When I performed the chirping noise this startled the bug and killed it. It is now lieing peacefully inside my computer screen. To cut a long story short, the bug is dead (probably over heated as I left my screen on all day) and I will live with it until it decomposes. Hopefully it will leave a message to all the other bugs that are wanting to get in there. I've noticed a small woodlice trying its luck on more than a few occasions.
PS. I approached the screen brownely as that is the colour of my hair. Would this of made a difference?
No mate the brown hair is fine . I reckon where you slipped up was making a chirping sound , when we clearly stated chirruping (subtle but important difference) . Its possible the bug mistook your noises for a predator and expired from sheer fear . Shame a decent chirrup would have brought him stright out , assuming he never smelt the beer on your breath .
